"Remember Moments Like This" by Sabrina Turpin

Hello 2Crafty fans,

This month, I was a guest designer on the CSI Colors Stories Inspiration for Case #268!
When I saw the challenge I knew exactly which pictures and materials would fit perfectly,
 as my inspiration for this layout had been brewing ever since my husband and I took
these pictures. I just needed the perfect excuse to go in "full holidays mode"! I really
love Christmas time (and reindeers) and a few weeks ago I found this amazing reindeer
onesies PJ that can be worn as a costume so it was a match made in heaven.

For this challenge, I chose to integrate "Christmas/Holiday Elements", "Plaid", "Frames", "Deer", "Lightbulbs" and "Poinsettias" elements on a "Wood Background". I really like the result.

The dark wood background brings some warmth to the layout while allowing
 the chipboard items to really stand out.

For the title, "Remember moments like this", I used black embossing powder.

On the "Christmas Light Strands", I applied red embossing ink and then gold embossing

 ink on top. For the "Foliage set 4", I used green embossing ink and then applied

 diluted teal metallic paint on top.

On the "Christmas frame", I applied white-gold embossing enamel.

That's it for 2018 for me! 

I wish you the best holidays season and I can't wait to see you again in 2019! 

Take care and keep creating!
